about

in December, I began to have ideas about making music again, and idea I hadn't pursued in quite sometime. I wanted to delve into filmmaking, which I may want to do again someday, but that's a serious challenge and somewhat unattainable. being around music as much as I am, I've had a number of inspirations, and I've decided to once again take things a bit seriously. here we are, two months later, and this is the first music I've made with the band name that I've wanted to use for a few years now. it's not exactly the kind of thing I want to continue making, but considering I also want to make a lot of different kinds of stuff (including stuff with singing, maybe), this seems like a very cool way to start what'll hopefully be a very cool discography. Chrissy Wrobel and I did a lot of work to get this thing done very quickly over a weekend (she did the artwork in a mere hour), and this whole thing was programmed and recorded in her apartment. and I know it's not the best, but it's heavily interesting at the least. I'd be honored if you took the 22 minutes to listen to this, even if it's way outside of your regular listening (it probably is, the last song is literally the same loop for 9 minutes, but it's also my favorite song), and also give any sort of feedback you think would benefit me. thank you, and I hope you find at least something you like.
